The Gujarat Forest Department, in collaboration with a local environmental trust, has constructed floating boardwalks made of recycled plastic across mangrove wetlands near Bhavnagar. Designed to resist tides and saline wear, the boardwalks allow visitors and researchers to traverse sensitive habitats safely. Interpretive signage educates visitors about mangrove ecology and conservation. Early footfall indicates a 60% increase in eco-tourism, generating income for local boat operators and guides. Assurances have been taken to not disturb wildlife and maintain structural safety. Funds from community entrance fees are used for mangrove planting and wetland maintenance. The pilot aims to replicate boardwalks in Saurashtra’s coastal reserves.
